MAKING II is the second in a three-part series of documentary films by acclaimed filmmaker Pat Collins (That They May Face the Rising Sun), based on the annual “Making In” cultural event which takes place in each September at Joseph Walsh Studio in Fartha, Co. Cork.
Following on from the success of the first MAKING, released in August 2024, MAKING II features interviews and intimate conversations with a range of artists, architects, designers, musicians, sculptors and more. MAKING II invites audiences to reflect on the dedication, devotion, and passion that makers bring to their craft. The film also follows the creation of “Magnus RINN”, the monumental sculpture by Joseph Walsh commissioned for the Ireland Pavilion at Expo Osaka 2025.
MAKING II premiered in April 2025 at the Tokyo International Forum and comes to RTÉ on Monday 1 September on RTÉ One at 23.05. It will also be available to stream on RTÉ Player. Watch MAKING I on RTÉ Player here.
